MeW Ladies At Long Branch AM
8aratoga wear Diamonds.

In small jewelry store there
escaped the solution of secret that
has puzzled many this season: Nc
one going to Long Branch has failed
to notice the plenty Of diamonds on
ordinarily-dressed women. This
jewelers. store is insignificant, but he
has good watch repairer, whose SER
vices are often enlisted to tinker DAM
aged mainsprings or fractured crys-
tails. But if the exhibition of goods
is modest, the natty little proprietor
can take out of his pocket any day a
handful of fine diamonds. As l stood
advising with him relative to main
spring that had gone off that morning
like an insane cofee-mill or a lunati(
alarm clock, a dapper man came in
and handed over some cases. The
new conner produced notebook and
read:
MRS. Jones wants that aigrette fol
Thursday night, and Miss Smith will
take solitaire ring and earrings fol
the week for $10."
Cant do it," said Mr. Sparks
''not less than $20."
So the man wrote it down in his
book. Then he paid so much for Mrs
Jones, so much for Miss White and
Mrs. Brown.
''The Browns go to Saratoga" he
said, "and will have both those sets
for week after next; so don't let 'em
for more than this week."
Here l got interested, and asked
edo you let out jewelry?"
81 should say so," said he. 81
must have $10O, 900 worth of stones on
hire in Long Branch and Saratoga this
season."
"Isn't it risky"
'sOh, bless you, 1 have security.
The lady who had this set" Che took
one of the returned cases and showed d
a splendid pair of earrings and a bar
pin) cleft treasury note of $1,000 as
collateral. l have an agent in both
places to leok after my interests, and !
assure you it is paying branch of my
business. ."-[Chicago Herald.

Rebukiug the Teacher.

A number cf Dakota COMMITTEES have
aady Superintendents of Schools.
While one Of them was recently max
ing the rounds of the schools, in ac-
.coriance with law, she drove up to
one little school-house on the prairie
at about IL O'Clock in the forenoon,
and found the scholars all out playing
about the yard. Two Of the boys were
indulging in fight, another pair were
learning to chew tobacco, while the
Others were playing marbles for keeps
and adjusting an old but large and
,corpulent tea-kettle to dogs tail.
The Superintendent learned that there
had been school so far that day, and
when she went into the school-house
!. she said to the young teacher some
what severely:
-4Is this the kind of school you
are teaching? l feel l shall be obliged
to cancel your certificate and have
you removed from the school,"
"Why-why-I-I-didn't know
you were coming!"
"Ah, that's just it, l know you
~didn't-but did come and caught
you. shall be obliged to ask you tt
hand in your resignation immedi-
ately."
"But-but, Miss Rhetorick, let me
explain. L"
II don't think you can make any
satisfactory explanation, as l noticed
you were sitting here reading when
came in"
''But that's just it-I was reading

"My goodness! 1 didn't know il
had come yet-let me see it, please
I'm just dying to know how to make
my new polenaise Say. you ought
to see that lovely piece of summer
goods that got at Noprofit & Slaught'

EUROPEdN ARMAMENTS.

Military ornaments do not mpart courage
TO nations Europe, armed and equipped for
war as never before in history is no: eman-
cipated from fear. The maintenance Of any
of the five great armies of the Continent On a
peace footing for n single year costs as much
as an active campaign in the last century. The
nations are staggering under the financial bur
dens imposed by the rampant spirit Of militar-
isn These powerful ornaments purchased
at high cost do not impart feeling of conf
dencc anywhere These very dtans bending
under tho weight Of preparations for war arc
timorous and suspicious Every year new
fortcsses arc planned, larger masses Of war
material cole ctcd, more battaliOns recruited.
more officers commissioned and greater credits
demanded. Every military staff spends it,
time in fideetng over weak points in arma-
ments and dcfcnces. The smallest details Of
military and naval administration excite apprc-
hcnsion. In no European capital is there Il
sense Of security. Every Government is in a
state of nervous eAcitability over the neglect
of additional defensive precautions or the Inn
Projections Of the mechanism of war.
Zeal for the improvement Of the military
service IS rapidly becoming a Governmental
mania on tie Continent The Mauser magazine
gun is introduced on small scale
by single Power and few reg
iments of infantry are drilled in the
use of it. Immediately there is feeling Of
alarm in every capital. The old arms, inn
proved several times since the ncedle-gun was
invented, arc condemned rs antiquatcd. Every
army must be- armed with the new gun. Ex-
ira credits are asked for, the critical state of
foreign affairs being used as a pretcxt. The
gun factories arc to-day running night and day
in five countries in order 10 supply as many
armies with these improved implements of war.
The German Government, not content with
obtaining a large supply Of these magazine
guns, is taking the precaution to call out tho
military reserves and 10 drill them In the use
Of these arms of precision. The science of
war has been reduced 70 a point Of critical
fincness when 1t is considered hazardous, even
in the absence Of war; to delay the introduction
of new invention for month or year, and
when not only the standing armies but the re-
serves as well must with preupitate haste bc
trained in the use of it, There is a tradition
in tho English Navy Of tyrannical captain
who insisted upon having the sailors polish
the cann0n-balls as well as scOur the decks.
The martinets Of the military establishments
are subjcctng their armies to as wearisome and
exhaustive strain.

M4PTIRS OE PROGRESS.

The pathetic story told by Mrs. Helen Camp
Tell IN to-day's TRIBUNE is at once illustrat-
i've and suggestive. 1t relates TO a phase Of
modern life which is an alteration, not a true
part of any healthy movement. All progress in
material prosperity is due primarily to the force
of self-intercst. Acquistivcness spurs men on
to invention, TO commercial enterprise, TO com
petition. Now competition may lead those who
engage in it either up or down, and the dircc-
ton they 90 is determined by the quality OF
their own conscience and perception. The man
who hastcs 10 lie rich and does not care about
the means he uses will meet rivalry in business
by fraud will adu!tcratc, lower the quality OF
his goods, seek to secure market by cheap
ncss made possible by the deterioration of the
products This is the kind of man who tries
TO shuttle of his responsibility upon the impcr-
;.tive needs of his business position. But hay
ing adopted imposture as his auxiliary, 1t Is
natural that he should resort TO falsch0od to
Justify the act. 1t is not true that competition
makes fraud necessary. The history Of the
only commerce which docs real honor to these
engaged in 1t proves the contrary. The names
of the men whom the world has rewarded with
the spontaneous title of merchant princes
excellence, thoroughness and trustworthlncss
from the least TO the greatest affairs.
These are the men who represent the broad
current Of commercial progress. They have
in innumcrablc instances, branded as cownrdly
mcndacity the craven plea OF their weaker
brethren on behalf Of dishonest practices by
showing that the merchant or manufacturer
who maintains the highest standard is sure not
only Of fame but fortune, and that the upright
career is recommended as well by interest as 10y
consciousness and duty. The manufacture
crs with whom the occupant Of the hospital
bed came in contact were clearly OF the lower
class. Sordid, avaricious, unprincipcd, they
were bent upon increasing their business bv
hook or by crook and cared nothing for their
hands. The poor fellow whose story Mrs.
Campbell tells fell among these ignoblc repre-
scntativcs of production, and was inevitably
defeated in his phIlanthropc purposes. But
il all business was conducted on the principles
which his partners and employers followed
there would lie no need for the tcrrOrs of Hell,
for the worst conditions the mind can conceive
Of would bc produced here on Garth and Of their
own voliGon by the class Of muck rake money
seekers. Competition in chicancy, of course,
Is eventually sclf-dcstructiNc. 1t Is n reversal
OF natural laws which constitutes n hidcous
kind Of burcsquc. The only competition which
can prosper and produce abiding and
wholesome conditions is that which cmua'es
superiority, and however slow communities
and nations may he in realizing this they Will
have TO acknowledge and act upon IT in the end.

NETWORK DAILY TRIBUNE SUNDAY twelve PAGES

relation to tic history Of the Golden State
One of it's features is a mass of manuscript
records obtained directly from the old pioneers,
and containing matter literally priceless for tho
people of California, in whose keeping it is
perfectly evident that all such documents should
bc.
Besides the pioneer records the Bancroft
Library embraces full collections relating to
every Pacific Coast State, TO Mexico and Cen
trail America Among them arc masses of orig
inal manuscripts, rare old works, some of them
probably unique, maps and charts, ecclesiastical
and State archives, and historical material oil
every conceivable character, gathered and ar
ranged so Systematically that probably no point
Of consequence requiring illustration has been
overlooked The work dcno 10y Mr.. Bancroft
by and through this library, in fact Is one
which any and every State in the Union could
afford to compensate in the most liberal and
even generous manner. for it is Of kind which
only wcl-cquippcd and wealthy historical so
cictics could undertake, and even then it would
require years of application. The State of Cal
ifornia is fortunate in being able to secure the
Bancroft Library. We presume that there will
be no hesitation on the part OF the Legislature
as TO the wisdom Of accepting the offer made
by Mr. Bancroft. TO permit such treasure to
find its way to the auctionccrs rooms would he
vandalism which must discredit the State
permanently. Want Of appreciation of so
magnificent n collection would, however, be
nothing less than want of sense, and we can
not predicate such a deficiency Of the California
lawmakers. The opportunity presented them
is such ono as rarely arrives to communities.
Tho Bancroft Library nghdully belongs to the
great Pacific Stalc, and none other should be
allowed to possess it, Doubtless this will be
tho conviction Of The people, press and repre-
sentalivcs of California, and they may be con-
graduated upon the good fortune which has
brought so splendid a collection within their
reach.
